Aaron Gray is projected as a starter in place of DeMarcus Cousins (ankle) Friday. Rudy Gay (Achilles') is also out, leaving the Kings' likely starting five in Friday's game against the Pacers as: Isaiah Thomas, Marcus Thornton, Derrick Williams, Jason Thompson and Gray. Williams is the only one we'd consider as a realistic plug-n-play, and even he will be shaky against the Pacers' dominant defense. Gray is a plodding 7-footer with zero upside.
